- - - - After the signing of thei Treaty, the British made another treaty with SUltan Hussein and the Temenggong. By this treaty in AUgust 1824, Crawford obtained the whole island for the Company. Singapore thus became a British territory. In return the British gave the Sultan $33,200 and a monthly pension of $1,300. They gave the Temenggong $28,000 and a monthly pension of $700. The Sutan and the Temenggong agreed not to make any treaty with any foreign power without the permission of the British.
    - - The Anglo-Dutch Treaty of 1824 divided the Malay Archipelago into two spheres of influence. The islands of the Archipelago came within Dutch influence. Singapore and the Malay Peninsula came within British influence.
        In the middle of the 19th century, there was much argument over the terms of the Treaty. There was some trouble when the Sultan of Brunei ceded Labuan to Britain. The Dutch started the British had broken the terms of the Treaty. They claimed that Borneo lay partly south of Singapore. Therefore Labuan was within Dutch influence. But Britain argued that Labuan lay north of the Straits of Singapore. Therefore was within British influence.
    - - In spite for that, the Treaty helped to strengthen friendship between the two countries in Europe. It also lessened the rivalry and hostility between them in the East. But Britain could no longer hope to set up a large empire in teh Malay Archipelago. However, they could now develop Singapore without any interference or objections from the Dutch.
    - - The British did not lose anything when they gave Bencoolen to the Dutch, as it was not a suitable trading base. But the British also did not benefit when they took over Malacca. Malacca had by then lost its commercial and strategic importance - the harbour was sitting, and it was now a mainly collecting centre of local produce for Penang and Singapore.
      - The British now had three settlements along the west coast. They could protect their trade between India and China. And there was no longer the fear of Dutch interference in the Malay Peninsula. Eventually the British in these settlements were to play an important part in teh history of the Malay states
      - The Dutch benefited greatly. They now had a wide area to spread their influence and t increase their trade. The Dutch played an important part in the history of this area which was known as the Netherlands East Indies (Indonesia)
    - - The British and the Dutch had agreed to have equal trading rights. They were to trade freely in the East Indies. But the Dutch continued to place heavy taxes on British ships.They were trying to ruin British trade in the East Indies
    - - The Anglo-Dutch treaty ended teh Johor Empire. The Johor Empire was now divided into two parts. Singapore became a British territory. Johor, on the mainland came within British influence. The Sultan was Hussein but he had little power. The real ruler was the Temenggong. Pahang, a vassal state of Johor, slowly broke away. The Bendahara began rule Pahang independently.
        The Rhio-Lingga Archipelago which was the other half the empire came under Dutch influence. Never again could Johor Sultan reunite the territories of the former Johor empire.
    - - The Treaty had divided the Malay Archipelago into two spheres of influence - the British and the. Dutch. Their influences later brought about great differences in the political and economic development of the Malay Peninsula and the islands of the Malay Archipelago.
